Threat Assessment
Private investigators share many skill sets with risk assessment investigators or firms. When it comes to preventing violence in your workplace, having a threat assessment investigator with diverse human experience can provide the crucial context in violence or threat assessment.
Private investigators can conduct illuminating background checks on employees and assess the relevant factors in their history that might indicate they could be violent, including criminal records and employment history. Our violence & threat assessment team can also provide insight into how prepared and protected your business is for an act of workplace violence, both on a minimal and monumental scale.
Why do clients need our services?
When dealing with targeted violence and violence prevention, law enforcement cannot help those affected by it if there is not a pattern of escalation in an individual’s behavior. For instance, a feeling or gut instinct about an aloof or unfriendly employee/coworker is not enough to cause law enforcement to intervene before any incidents of violence.
There must be a documented escalation of concerning behavior for law enforcement to take preventative action towards an individual who might be a risk to their coworkers. Depending on the location and geo social makeup of the jurisdiction, law enforcement might lack the professional experience to know when an individual is escalating concerning behavior.
A violence or threat assessment can save both lives and money. The number of incidents of workplace violence is tragically on the rise.
Risk assessment & prevention
Private investigators can develop comprehensive background checks on subjects of interest in preventing workplace violence. In a behavioral threat assessment, they identify the relevant factors in a subject’s history that might indicate violence, such as criminal history or work history. We compile all relevant aspects into our threat assessment to make the best recommendation possible to our clients. A security threat detective must be proactive and focused on preventing harm to individuals and property. The primary focus of such an assessment is to prevent violence against a specific target. This takes not only proper resources, but also knowing how to use social media, for instance, to collect information about the individual making threats. Determinations can be made from how individuals express their threats, as well as by performing in-depth background checks to evaluate a suspect’s potential for doing harm to others.
